"As a psychotherapist I strive to assist my clients in the process of becoming more whole in all aspects of their lives. My primary training is as an art therapist and I use an integrative approach to promote healing. I find that enhancing talk therapy with experiential methods gives my clients the freedom to express their deepest selves. Within the therapeutic relationship we can find the existing internal nuances and textures that make us all unique and valuable.
My work includes seeing individuals, adolescents and adults, who have depression/anxiety, past trauma, addiction related issues and middle-aged challenges."

"Sometimes our lives get to a point where we're just surviving, rather than thriving. In survival mode, we cope the best we can - this may mean using disordered eating behaviors, self-harm, substance use, self-criticizing inner talk, or self-destruction. I'm here to help guide you out of survival mode and into your best life. In therapy, we'll explore how you're surviving and how you can thrive. We'll identify changes you want and I will offer suggestions to help you create these changes. We will balance this change with lots of self-compassion."

"We all experience times when we feel overwhelmed by the thoughts and feelings in our head. Whether it is a change in jobs, the breakdown of a relationship, the birth of a child, or the loss of a loved one - life circumstances have an impact on our emotional health. When life presents these difficult times, we can sometimes feel stuck not knowing how to move forward or feel better. In addition, we may notice adaptive behaviors/thoughts from the past no longer feel helpful in our present circumstances. This can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves, others, and the world around us."

"I help people understand themselves. When you understand yourself - your patterns, your perspective - you can change whatever isn't working in your life, and invite in more of what is.

I provide a friendly, comfortable space where you can relax and talk. I listen, and offer fresh insights and feedback, as well as new skills and strategies for you to try. You leave feeling free of judgment and full of hope."

"I believe that therapy involves a collaboration between the client/s and the therapist. If a client is not part of the decisions, the ideas, the relationship, and the motivation, achieving the desired change is much more difficult.

I love being a part of that process. My role as a therapist is to collaborate with, empathize with, support, understand, and encourage my clients."
